Character preparation, Is an ongoing process for a Method Actor. It's a struggle, To draw from Stanislavski, Robert Lewis, Michael Chekhov, Uda Hagen, Sanford Meisner, Stella Adler, Lee Strasberg, the stellar stars we are blessed to study and learn from, And others, as you pick from the leaves of the "Method tree", And make a cup of tea, In the mind of the Director, Who only tells you the ingredients, never the portions.
Too much, It's too bitter, Too less, It's too sweet. So somehow in my quest of bringing the dead to life, As well as being a Mind reader, I have to find a way to trust the guidance of a person who will tell me hardly anything, And sometimes too much.
I function in a mind frame of less is more (Eastwood) (Spaghetti westerns) as I plunge into a world of the written unknown, Where bland words are given life in my passion to perform, For you. So, Shall we sit, And have some tea, From the imagination of my creativity.
An entertainer does not receive Accolades for doing what they are Comfortable performing, But by confronting the fears of failure, going headlong into the unknown abyss of re-creation, and Bringing the Character to life, Becoming The Character, so Skillfully, So well, you forget its a Movie, and Who the Actor is, in real Life.
Thats Acting,"Don't tell me you can't do it, If you've never tried, Just be honest and tell me you are too afraid to try."" I can do all things, through Christ that strengthens me."It's never, About me, And always about YOUJuan Rios Gaspard#TheLion#TheLionofLouisiana,
